Formation / gameplay questions

Hi I'm pretty new to fifa, and I would like to ask how can I change my formation to like 5 or 6 in the back, I've heard people say they use 6-?-? formations and I Don't see those in my formation list.

Also, I would like some quick tips in game play, I've watched some youtube videos to learn some stuff, but I still have a question on how to take the ball as defence, (this is for xbox) Do I just hold down A? thats what iv been doing all along, and just wait for the play to take the ball, anyways any help would be appreciated, thanks

Create a custom formation if you don't see the one you want in the list of default formations. Also, lots of gameplay tips around if you do a search.

Sadly, playing with 6 in the back (at least having 5 in the back with a CDM sitting right in front of the backline with no offensive responsibilities), although cheap, will win you a good chunk of games online. The midfield is too easily bypassed with long passes on the ground, whether using "A" or "Y", rendering them pretty much useless. A formation of:

---ST---ST---
-LAM----RAM-
---------------
-----CDM-----
0--0--0--0--0*
*backline of LWB, LCB, CB, RCB, RWB

is, unfortunately, pretty devastating.
